Apple and Honey Challah from Chef Lauren Braun Costello

Recipe from Chef Lauren Braun Costello (@itslaurenofcourse on Instagram & Facebook)

Apple & Honey Challah

Apples and honey are a staple food observance for Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish new year. This challah recipe features those flavors without any of the fuss, thanks to two special ingredients from BD Provisions: Green Apple Chips and Honey. The apple chips provide all the apple flavor without turning the dough wet. In fact, it is the dough that imparts moisture to the dried apples, reconstituting them while maintaining the bread's structure and desired texture. Adding honey to the second egg wash gives that glisten and sheen. Incidentally, this challah makes the best French toast or bread pudding the next day!

Equipment: measuring spoons, wet and dry measuring cups, two large mixing bowls, dough hook, standing mixer with dough hook attachment (optional), bench scraper, plastic wrap, baking sheet, parchment paper or nonstick baking mat, cooling rack

Ingredients
1 cup warm water (at least 95°F - 110°F)
1 package BD yeast (or 2¼ teaspoons)
1 teaspoon BD granulated sugar
1/3 cup canola or vegetable oil
1/3 cup sugar (or ½ cup for sweeter bread)
1 tablespoon kosher salt
3 large eggs
4 – 4½ cups BD all-purpose flour
1 egg, beaten with 1 teaspoon cold water
1 tablespoon BD Honey
1 cup BD Green Apple Chips

Directions
1. In a small bowl or measuring cup, sprinkle yeast and sugar on warm water. Stir. Let stand for up to 10 minutes (it should look like the foam on beer).

2. In a large bowl, combine oil, sugar, salt, eggs, and then the yeast mixture. Stir in 2 cups of flour.

3. Gradually stir in most of the remaining flour.* Dough will be sticky.

4. Place dough on lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes (or use a standing mixer with the dough hook on a low speed), adding a little flour at a time as needed. If dough sticks to the counter, use a bench scraper to clean the surface and lightly flour the board to prevent further sticking. When done kneading, the dough will feel silky and smooth.

5. Put dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 1½ hours in a warm, draft-free environment until approximately doubled (the bowl placed inside your oven with the light on is a good spot).

6. Punch down the dough with your floured fist. Divide the piece into 3 equal sections.

7. Flatten each piece of dough and spread with approximately 1/3 cup apple chips. Carefully roll each section into equal strands, about 12 inches long, tapering the ends as you roll.

8. Pinch the strands together at one end and braid, maintaining the same tension as you go so that the challah will be symmetrical. Pinch the other end as well when done.

9. Place dough on parchment paper or nonstick baking mat. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a clean dish towel as it goes through the final rise for 30 minutes to no more than 1 hour.

10. Right before baking, brush the bread with beaten egg wash (egg and water). Place the bread in the oven and bake for 17 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon honey to the egg wash and set aside.

11. After 17 minutes of baking, remove the pan from the oven (shut the oven door so the heat does not escape). Brush with additional honey egg wash, and rotate the pan when returning it to the oven. Bake for another 17 minutes.

12. Allow the bread to rest and cool for one hour before serving.
You can make the dough the night before, and place in the refrigerator to rise. Remove it 30 minutes before shaping. Then proceed as written above.

Yield: 1 loaf

Amount of flour used will vary, depending upon the moisture in the air.

Maple, Cinnamon and Date Oatmeal Scone

Maple Cinnamon and Date Oatmeal Scone

Recipe from Vivian Lee (Instagram @VivaYoungHealth))

Ingredients:

Dry

2⁄3 cup BD provisions whole wheat flour

1⁄3 oat flour – Made from BD Provisions oats*

3⁄4 cup BD Provisions rolled oats

1⁄2 tsp baking powder

1⁄2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp BD Provisions ground cinnamon

Wet

3⁄4 cup plant milk (I used unsweetened soy milk.)

1 T ground BD Provisions flax** + 3 Tbsp water (This is equivalent to

1 T BD Provisions maple syrup

1 tsp vanilla extract

Add-ins:

1⁄2 cup BD Provisions dates, thinly chopped

(Optional) 1⁄4 cup BD Provisions non-dairy chocolate chips

Notes:

* You can easily create oat flour at home by blending rolled oats in a blender, food

processor, or coffee grinder.

** Ground flax seeds are a great substitute for conventional eggs. The ratio of ground

flax to water is 1:3. One tablespoon of ground flax to three tablespoons of water

substitutes for one egg.

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. First, create the flax egg by combining the ground flax and water in a

small bowl. Stir and set aside to let it congeal.

3. Combine the dry ingredients in a medium or large mixing bowl and

mix evenly with a wooden spoon.

  4. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients and whisk

evenly.

5. Fold in the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix. Notice

whether the mixture is too wet or dry. If wet, add 1⁄4 cup oats at a time.

If too dry, add 1 tablespoon of water or non-dairy milk at a time.

6. Using slightly wet hands, roll mixture into six balls setting them on the

baking sheet.

7. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Check that the surface is evenly browned.

8. Allow to cool for a few minutes.

9. Serve with an optional glaze of maple syrup.

Notes:

* You can also bake these in an oven toaster.

Classic Maryland Crab Cake

Classic Maryland Crab Cake

1 lb lump crabmeat

1 large egg

¼ cup plain Greek yogurt

1 ½ tsp BD Provisions ground mustard

1 ½ tsp BD Provisions Salmon Rub mixture

1 tsp fresh lemon juice

½ tsp Worcestershire sauce

Kosher Salt

1 ¼ cup BD Provisions Panko bread crumbs

1 Tbsp chopped fresh flat leaf parsley

2 Tbsp butter

1 Tbsp BD Provisions EVOO

Lemon Wedges for serving

Drain the crabmeat and pick through for shells.  Put the crab in a medium mixing bowl and set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg, yogurt, mustard, Salmon Rub, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and ¼ tsp salt.  Scrape the mixture over the crab and mix gently until well combined.  Gently break up the lumps with your fingers but do not over mix.

Sprinkle the breadcrumbs and the parsley over the mixture, and mix them thoroughly but gently: try not to turn the mixture into a mash….it should still be somewhat loose.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours.

Shape the crab mixture into 8 cakes about 1 inch thick. In a 12-inch skillet, heat the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. When the butter is frothy, add the cakes to the pan.  Cook until dark golden brown on the underside, about 4 minutes. Flip the cakes, reduce the heat to medium low and continue cooking until the other side is well browned, 4 to 5 minutes.  Serve with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the cakes.

40 Clove Garlic Chicken

25 years ago, one of our founders was visiting San Francisco on business and while exploring the city he found a wonderful restaurant called The Stinking Rose. As the name suggests, the restaurant was all about Garlic.  Garlic Wine, Garlic Chicken, Garlic Ice cream, Garlic Bread and Garlic Butter.  Get the picture?  One of his favorite dishes was 40 Clove Garlic Chicken.  The recipe below is our version of this amazing dish. Enjoy

·        4 Tbsp of BD Provisions Garlic Olive Oil

·        4 Skin-on Chicken breasts or 6 skin on Chicken Thighs

·        1 tsp of BD Provisions Sea Salt

·        ½ tsp BD provisions Black pepper

·        20 cloves of garlic peeled (feel free to use 40)

·        2 Tbsp BD provisions Rosemary

·        4-6 slices of toasted Italian Bread

·        4 Tbsp of BD Provisions Champagne Balsamic Vinegar

·        2 Tbsp of BD Provisions Cask 10 Balsamic Vinegar

Directions: You are going to want to preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a large oven proof Skillet heat the Garlic Olive Oil (medium heat). Season the chicken on both sides with pepper and salt and cook, skin-side down, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. 

Peel 40 cloves of garlic. Flip the Chicken so the skin is up and add the garlic and rosemary to the skillet.  Carefully transfer the oven proof skillet to the oven. Roast until the chicken is cooked through but still moist, 15 to 20 more minutes.  You may also want to Broil for 2 minutes to finish browning the chicken skin.  Pull the skillet from the oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes

Place the toasted Italian bread on a platter (that has a rim to hold the juice) and carefully place chicken on the toast. Add the Champagne vinegar to the skillet and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.  This will take 2-3 minutes. Pour the sauce and garlic over the chicken. Drizzle the chicken with BD Provisions Cask 10 Balsamic vinegar just before serving.
